Extramural ActivityLeave a comment

Bobby Sands has been replaced at the centre of this Enniskillen board by a copy of the 1916 Proclamation flanked by Easter lilies. (See the previous version.) The rest of the board remains the same: graveside mourners surrounded by the four provinces and Celtic knotwork. The sunburst and starry plough have been painted in the corners of the out-building.

The Bloody Sunday Window

Extramural ActivityLeave a comment

In addition to the 13 people killed on Bloody Sunday, plus John Johnston who died later, the window commemorates “the innocent people killed during the Troubles in the Derry area.”

The artist’s signature is in the bottom left: “Peter T.G. Rooney”.

Impunity

Extramural ActivityLeave a comment

Line drawing in Derry by Carlos Latuff showing an army soldier, with “impunity” across his shoulders, taking aim at a blindfolded woman, representing martyrs’ families.

Latuff is a Brazilian political cartoonist (web site). This piece is outside the Free Museum of Derry. Just out of shot (to the right) is an actual bullet-hole from Bloody Sunday. He also added a drawing to Free Derry corner (M08306). On the same visit (July 2012), he worked in Belfast on a mural expressing solidarity between Palestinian and republican POWs and also did a line drawing on a café wall.

(See also: Latuff cartoon used in a flyer for a rally to End Imp unity.)
